There's just something very specific about homoerotic character-enveloping friendships from around 2010 where they're semi-aware that gay people exist but queerbaiting isn't quite a thing yet sp their relationship consumes the narrative and changes them both irrevocably forever and they end in tragedy but the ending is JUST open enough for the fic writers to wriggle into that just makes me go fucking FERAL

afraid i may have touched a sadness within myself i cannot jerk my way out of

sex is kind of weird though right?

Close enough welcome back geto suguru

i cant really draw but give me something morty related to draw anyway!!!!!!

Rick is my spirit animal i love him with all my heart!! Hes such a nice depiction of an asshole its bordeline giggle inducing. His reasons and motivations to be the way he is are so nuanced its insane. Rick is such a complicated yet simple character. He loves people but pushes them away for their (and his) own good. Being able to read rick (body language, speech, being able to differentiate when he's serious about smth or when hes not) is its own art.

I can seriously rant about r&m alllllll damn day but the more i go on the more incomprehensible everything becomes.

Do you ever rewatch a show and skip a few episodes cause they aren’t really that good but then realize that you’re favorite character that the writers did dirty and didn’t give enough screentime or episodes about them is in that episode that you wanna skip so you just subject yourself to rewatching that episode just for them?

i think ppl keep forgetting that rick, OUR rick, c-137 rick didnt leave or abandon his family. he always cared. he always wanted them. his wife and daughter died in front of him and he spent his whole life being destroyed by it. then he hangs out in a universe where he gets to be with them. like he loves his family SO much??? n e ways 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Time for another Rick and Morty body language analysis post since people seemed to really enjoy my last one!

There’s a scene in the season 5 finale that I’ve been thinking about for a long time. When Rick and Morty and trying to escape the Citadel, just before their final confrontation with Evil Morty:

Morty is trying to ask Rick questions, while Rick continuously blows him off and insists that they focus at the task at hand. “We’re back to simple adventures!” he says. Morty shouldn’t concern himself with Rick’s secrets or his past.

And the shot above always seemed familiar to me, in a way. And I was able to place where I recognized it from:

^ this is an official promotional image for Rick and Morty (season 4, I believe) that I’ve seen around a lot. There’s a lot of wallpapers and posters using it. You may recognize it too

And in many ways, the scene from the season 5 finale reminded me of it. Rick leading Morty, his arms outstretched and raised. Come on, Morty! Follow me into our next adventure! Classic Rick and Morty!! 100 years!

But in the scene, Morty stops.

He doesn’t follow. He stops and says “No, I don’t trust you. I don’t want to do this anymore if I’m not gonna get straight answers from you.”

In this scene Rick is physically positioned below Morty, bringing them down to eye level. Equals. Rick is even the one extending forward, almost pleadingly for Morty to trust him.

People other than me have pointed out that Rick’s body language with Morty is often dominating and intimidating when he’s trying to control him. He quite literally towers over him as a threatening force

Although as time goes on, these classic scenes become repeated with Morty now standing beside Rick and joining in the fun as much more of an equal

And building upon that idea, of Rick coming to respect Morty more and Morty respecting himself enough to demand honesty, I thought it was pretty brilliantly staged.

he is SOOO calm and nonchalant, not a single chalant thought goes through his head EVER.

I love fanfic authors. I read a fic once and the author said they had the friend who is a real nuclear physicist teach them all about this radioactive compound and how it reacts with different materials so that their fic could be accurate. It was smut.
